La Lomita Ranch sits nestled between Islay Hill—the southernmost peak in the chain of volcanic cones known as the Nine Sisters—and the Edna Valley Wine Region. Once part of the historic Mexican land grant Rancho Corral de Piedra, La Lomita was originally developed as a ranch and breeding facility for Arabian horses. Still a working ranch today, it has grown to include a wedding venue, a charming Bed & Breakfast, and a vineyard on Islay Hill. Visitors can enjoy the beauty of its large pond, grand oaks, and lush gardens, while wine enthusiasts will savor the elegant estate wines crafted exclusively from its vineyard. 

Join Claudia Freitas and Karen Watts for a birding adventure around the ranch followed by wine tasting. Note that  La Lomita does not serve lunch; you are welcome to bring a picnic lunch to enjoy. Meets at La Lomita Ranch, 1985 La Lomita Way, San Luis Obispo.
